Re: NBC Hazard and NBC SOP

If the M1A1 unit drives into an unknown contaminated hex, they would take casualties. Like William said, the SOP to avoid does not necessarily mean that they are in a high state of protection. The NBC SOP states the action the unit whould take upon encountering a KNOWN contaminated area. If it is to...

Re: AI Deployment Differs from Human Player Options

I don't know why the author placed the arty on the map for the AI and off map for the player. It shouldn't matter for the AI. It will use the arty whether it is on map or off. Of course, that does give the AI the ability to cover more of the map than the player.

Re: AI Deployment Differs from Human Player Options

I am not the author of this scenario so I can't comment as to the author's intent. But personally, I don't see a problem. The AI is not a human player and in setting up a defense needs help. The Battle Planner in the editor allows the scenario author to play the part of the commander and to set his ...

Re: French infantry really good at ambushing at point blank.

The best way to use infantry in the defense is to put them in good, concealed terrain, set their fire disciple to "point blank" and let them enemy come to them. At close range, infantry can be very deadly even to tanks.

Re: Why a 2500m target is out of range for a 5000m max range mortar

I checked and confirmed the problem with the saved game file. I have posted this to JIRA for the developers to look at (FPSS-4803). If you change the state of the mortar unit (from Hold to something else), it will then accept the barrage order. However, having a Hold order should not effect that.

Re: Some problems.

There definitely appears to be a bug here. I checked your saved game and at Maximum setting the spottable range is 1100m. At Medium range it is 3750m. I have Jira'ed this for the developers to see @ FPSS-4802.

Re: Fixing "Relocation" - "Fall Back Orders"

Thanks, John for your comments. I personally don't think that there is anything like FPC. I have found no other wargame that makes me feel like I'm back in the battalion/brigade TOC like this game. Your criticism on relocation/scooting is valid and we are aware of its shortcomings. It is definitely ...

Re: Should the game offer a "fast-paced mode"?

Have you tried setting the game factors that have an effect on the speed of the turn resolution in the User Preferences. Set "Default game delay factor" to "0"; "Hex location flashes" to 3 or less; "Default Animation Speed" to 50. See if that helps the speed o...

Re: The immortal and unbreakable last infantry man

I don't think it is necessarily a bug, but urban combat is still something that we still need to work on and perfect. One thing I do like about it and does add some realism to it, it ties up units trying to find or finish off the few survivors. We can argue over how realistic that is. When you have ...

I believe you are referring to adding a Battle Plan mission to blow a bridge. The bad news is that you don't have that ability in the version of the game you have right now. The good news is that it is coming, and hopefully soon. I don't know if it will be in the next update or not. The Battle Plann...

Hey Hank, thinks for your post and your questions. Stacking limit is based on number of subunits in a hex and not the actual counter. Off the top of my head I think it is 35, but I could be mistaken.

Re: New user question on targeting specific units

The short answer to your question regarding targeting of units is no, you can't. The long answer is based upon the scope of the game. Flashpoint Campaigns places you in the role of brigade/regimental (and sometimes division) commander. Your job is not to direct individual units, but to see the big p...
